India's youngest racing sensation and JK Tyre prodigy Aditya Patel has said that it's a great feeling being on the podium here in front of my home crowd and to do it again today feels just brilliant.He stole the limelight yet again by finishing a fantastic second in Round 12 of the JK Racing Asia Series.
Fellow Indian Akhil Khushlani impressed with his driving skills and finished seventh while Raj Bharath and Vishnu Prasad ended ninth and tenth respectively. Taken as a whole, it turned out to be a proud and outstanding weekend for India at the JK Racing Asia Series Round 12.
Continuing to drive like a dream and in the lead for a major portion of the race, the young US Formula Project driver Aditya bettered yesterday's third place end by finishing second after starting fourth on the grid.
Aditya's battle-filled Round 11 and 12 performances and twin podium finishes after being away from racing for one year prove that he is a talent to watch out for in the coming season. He is one who has what it takes to be one of the best junior drivers in the world.
16-year old Danial Hidzir is known to be able to push the more experienced drivers whilst staying calm throughout.
All of the five circuits that the series visited in 2012 are Formula 1 circuits which are crucial to driver development in preparing them for higher levels of racing. The JK Racing Asia Series is recognised by the World Governing Body for Motorsport, the Federation Intenationale De L'Automobile (FIA), as having special status that allows for young inexperienced drivers to participate on a National License.
